I wonder how much memory this will take up on the server when it actually hits 1,000,000.

To calculate how much 1,000,000 posts would be, i would need to know the average information each post contains.
Average because people with longer names/posts/signatures will probably contain more information, just barely though. probably won't change the outcome too much.
the AVI could change it a bit too, dunno though.


then take that x 1,000,000!

That is assuming that the same page contains consistently the same data size of AVI. How about for "simplicity" we just establish the AVI at the highest amount of bytes, so while it is technically an error, it's an erring on the side of 'worst case scenario'.

Yeah, longer posts are bigger.

We can also assume that Chrono is from the XFire era, needs the company of a Golge and Gabag, then it's a homecoming!
